THE RECORDS
THE LABELS
THE GREEN LABELS ARE IN MINT CONDITION. A SOLID BASE COLOUR THAT IS FREE FROM ANY MARKS OR STAINS. FULLY RUNNING UNINTERRUPTED INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLE. THE BLACK TYPEFACE AND WHITE LOGO'S ARE ALL UNRUBBED AND PERFECTLY LEGIBLE.
THE SPINDLE HOLE IS TOTALLY UNWORN AND THERE IS ONE MINUSCULE SPIDER LINE BY THE HOLE SHOWING JUST HOW LITTLE THIS ALBUM HAS BEEN NEAR A TURNTABLE.
THE VINYL
THE VINYL ABSOLUTELY GLEAMS LIKE A POLISHED MIRROR. THE SHEEN IS FLAWLESS AND IN DAYLIGHT IT IS TOTALLY MINT, AND EVEN WHEN PLACED UNDER INTENSE ILLUMINATION THERE IS NOTHING TO SEE ON EITHER DISC
THE TEST PLAY
THE LP PLAYS THROUGH PERFECTLY ON ALL FOUR SIDES, AND I WOULD ENCOURAGE YOU TO TAKE A GOOD LISTEN TO THE SOUNDBITES WHICH DEMONSTRATE JUST HOW FANTASTIC THIS ALBUM SOUNDS.
THE VINYL PLAYS WITHOUT ANY DISTORTION TO THE SOUND WHATSOEVER.
THERE IS NO BACKGROUND CRACKLE AND CERTAINLY NO LOUD CLICKS ANYWHERE
NO EMBEDDED VINYL NOISE AND NO STATIC HEARD EITHER IN THE LINKING GROOVES OR SILENT PASSAGES AND THERE ARE MANY SILENT OR NEAR SILENT PASSAGES ON THIS ALBUM
I CAN'T EVEN SAY THAT I HEARD ANY DUST POPS THROUGH THE ENTIRE PLAYTHROUGH
I AM MORE THAN HAPPY TO GRADE THIS PLAYTHROUGH AS MINT
PLEASE DON'T JUST TAKE MY WORD FOR IT, TAKE A GOOD LISTEN AND JUDGE IT FOR YOURSELF
THE SLEEVE
NON LAMINATED MATTE GATEFOLD SLEEVE FROM ROBOR
THIS IS THE FIRST ISSUE WITH THE WHITE LETTERING ON THE FRONT. SUBSEQUENT ISSUES WERE ORANGE
THE FRONT SURFACE IS FLAT AND CLEAN AND FREE FROM ANY HEAVY CREASES OR DEEP CREASE LINES.
THE COLOUR IS ALSO IN PRISTINE UNRUBBED AND UNFADED CONDITION
THERE ARE TWO MINUSCULE PRESSURE LINES CLOSE TO THE SPINE , NONE ALONG THE TOP EDGE , NONE ALONG THE BOTTOM EDGE AND NO THUMB LINES NEAR THE OPENING EDGE.
THERE IS THE ABSOLUTE BAREST TRACE OF LIGHT RING WEAR JUST OVER THE BOTTOM EDGE
THE FOUR CORNERS ARE SHARP AND SQUARE WITH A PIN PRICK OF RUB TO A COUPLE OF THE TIP ENDS
THE TOP EDGES ARE PRISTINE WITH ALL OF THE DELICATE COLOURED SURFACE FULLY RUNNING FROM CORNER TO CORNER, AND JUST A PIN PRICK OF RUB ON THE RIGHT CORNER TIPS
THE BOTTOM EDGES HAVE A LITTLE LIGHT FLECKING TO THE REAR SURFACE AND A SPECK ON THE CORNER TIPS ON THE RIGHT
THE SPINE IS SUPERB. NO FADING AND THE COLOUR FULLY MATCHES THE FRONT AND REAR SURFACE. PRISTINE TEXT AND NO RUBBING
THE OPENING EDGES ARE RAZOR SHARP, AND SHOWS WHY THIS ALBUM HAS JUST NOT BEEN OUT OF THE SLEEVE
THE REAR SURFACE IS AS NICE AS THE FRONT
OPENING THE GATEFOLD REAVELS TWO MINT INNER PANELS
I HAVE NO HESITATION IN GRADING THIS SLEEVE NEAR MINT
GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR BID IF YOU CHOSE TO GO FOR IT
